This better be a free upgrade or I will not be purchasing TLOU3 until I can get it secondhand.

It's TLOU3 really something you can see happening? The story seems finished to me.

[–] Pillowpants@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah per supposed leaks, they started development on TLOU3 after the HBO show ended.

Hmm. I'm not sure how I feel about that, but I'm pretty sure I'll buy it anyway.

Yeah I feel half and half about it, myself. I think mostly because I just don't want another repeat of TLOU2s fan reception.

But also definitely because I think the story for Ellie and Abby is over. It's a perfect duology. Ellie was taught negative behaviors to survive by multiple poor infuences and Abbys' Dad was murdered. Part 2 resolves both of those conflicts by teaching both people that their ways aren't correct. The only tbmhing I can see coming from TLOU3 is a rando villain attacks Jackson and a silly war breaks out.

But that narrative point should come before Ellie learns the lesson against violence. We'll see.
